• Participate in project planning and coordination meetings to track progress and highlight potential risks
• Respond to requests for schedule, cost, and performance data clearly and in a timely manner
• Help improve project controls tools, templates, and reporting processes
• Support the team with other project controls and scheduling tasks as needed

What You'll Bring to the Familia:

• Effective verbal and written communication skills and the ability to work with multidisciplinary project teams

• Experience supporting utility, transmission, distribution, or substation construction projects
• Exposure to Earned Value Management (EVM) concepts or performance metrics
• Professional certifications such as CAPM, PMI-SP, PMP, or similar project controls certifications (such as AACE PSP) are a plus, but not required
